Which hireal car is best suited for the Caribbean?

Depending on your preference, you can, of course, choose a car that suits your needs.  Due to the often unpaved roads on the various islands, we recommend that you choose a robust car. For example, hire an SUV. If you plan to drive only in big cities, such as Havana, you should also consider a convertible.

Which insurance type do I need for my hireal car in the Caribbean?

The roads on the Caribbean islands are often not comparable to the European standard. Many roads are unpaved and may have potholes. In addition, we recommend taking fully comprehensive insurance without excess or with a refund of the excess in the event of damage. Further, we recommend that you take out the following insurance policies: 

• Glass and tyre insurance
• Underbody insurance
• Theft insurance

Explore beautiful beaches in the Caribbean with a hireal car

In addition to the fascinating beaches and numerous water sports opportunities, it is above all the always warm climate that attracts holidaymakers to the Caribbean. Tropical forests, impressive waterfalls and countless sunny beaches are waiting for sun worshippers and explorers. The dreamlike islands also offer numerous sights and unique attractions on each individual island, which can be explored particularly well with a hireal car. Jamaica's capital Kingston, for example, has many well-preserved colonial buildings and interesting museums. San Juan and Havana, with their picturesque Old Town, invite you to visit the historic city centre, which is also a UNESCO World Heritage Site. You can also visit botanical gardens and national parks on your individual itinerary with your own hireal car on the Caribbean islands.

What do I need to consider when hiring a car in the Caribbean?

Special road rules in the Caribbean

Each island has its own traffic rules and regulations. Unfortunately, no general statements can be made about parking spaces, speed limits, tolls and possible penalties. We recommend that you check the individual regulations for each island.

The best travel time - the Caribbean climate

Saint Lucia

The Caribbean is known and loved by tourists for its tropical climate. With average temperatures of over 20° celcius, it is also a good place to stay. Many Europeans come for holiday and sunbathe on the beautiful, white, fine sandy beaches of the Caribbean islands. The driest months are the winter months between November and April. Therefore they are also the most popular travel time for tourists. With your hireal car, you will be flexible and independent of public transport and tourist groups.

For those who want to do a road trip to the Caribbean with a hireal car, a one-way hireal might be the best option. This means that you can pick up your hireal car at the location of your choice and return it conveniently to another location. This is particularly useful if you are heading for cities that are far away from each other, such as Havana, Saint Lucia or Barbados.

What does the additional driver option actually mean? If you specify another person as an additional driver when booking, you can take turns driving the hireal car. Distances in the Caribbean can be very long. If only one person drives the hireal car, this can be quite exhausting. So that the driver can sit back and relax, too, you can simply hand over the steering wheel to the additional driver.
